A Bradford primary school will likely be forced to become an academy by the Government, despite opposition from parents.

Springwood Community Primary School on Wood Street, Manningham, was put into special measures after Ofsted inspectors visited in December, and concluded: "The majority of pupils leave the school without the skills needed to succeed at secondary school."

Now, as part of a Department for Education policy, the school is set to be removed from Council control and turned into a self-governed academy because of its failings.

The Dixons Academy chain, which has several schools in Bradford, has announced it wants to take over the running of the school.

However a parents' group has vowed to fight the forced academisation, and say the school is already on the road to improvement. Terri Leighton took over as headteacher shortly after the inspection, along with an Interim Executive Board chosen by Bradford Council and the DfE.

When Ofsted inspectors carried out a follow up visit in April, they said: "The headteacher has made a very prompt start on addressing the school’s key priorities. She is tackling weaknesses robustly. Significant improvements have been made to the learning environment."

The parents' group believes she should be given more time to turn the school's fortunes around.

Majid Tabassum said: "The school is clearly making progress, we don't understand why the school is being forced to become an academy and what advantage it can have over what is happening already. I don't know what extra they can offer. Once a school becomes an academy it can't come back out."

He believes that they have "every chance" of getting the academy plans thrown out, and the group plans to meet with Bradford Council next week.

Nick Weller, executive principal of the Dixons chain, said they would start a consultation with parents about taking on the school at the start of the next school year. He pointed out that the chain had successfully take over the failing Bradford Moor Primary School, now Dixons Marchbank.

He said: "The Dixons Academies' focus is on improving standards and giving the children of Bradford a better education. The results from Dixons Marchbank have improved markedly across the all key stages in one year. We would like to be given the opportunity to do the same for the children of Springwood."

A meeting was held with parents on Thursday morning to discuss the changes. Bradford spokesman for the National Union of Teachers Ian Murch and local councillor Istiaq Ahmed had attempted to attend, but were prevented from doing so, being told it was for parents only. Cllr Ahmed said he was "flabbergasted" when he was not allowed in, adding: "The suspicion is a decision has already been made."

A DfE spokesman said: "We have consistently demonstrated that where we find failure we will not hesitate to take action. We believe that Academy status led by a strong sponsor is the best way of providing quick and sustainable improvement – with sponsored academies improving far faster than Council-run schools.”

My children went to that school...One of the worst in my opinion. Any complaints from us parents were simply ignored and if a concern was raised about the quality of their teachings or against a teacher, they quickly closed ranks and simply made the parent look like a baddy.

In the final year, my daughter was told she was at level 5 for her maths and English, yet when she went to a secondary school and was tested, she was a level 3 and could hardly spell or do her maths properly.

I say good on Bradford Council as this is a very poor performing school. They need to get rid of most of the staff and bring in new teachers who don't simply work for a salary, but actually show care for kids.

I think the real fear isn't Islamising the school, that's just something we like to hide behide and use as a shield to throw our narrow minded comments.

Are people actually aware of the financial corruption that goes on in academies? All you have to do is type in "academy financial corruption" in Google and see what comes up.

My opinion is there has to be some serious level of accountability and with an academy there is none.

Academies are even exempted from the Freedom of Information Act. Why? What have they got to hide?

I will end with this have alook at how many schools are resisting acdaimisation and why before commenting that way you will see what's really going on here
I am in agreement with parents trying to stop academisation. More parents should take such an active interest in their children's education and future.

I think Islamising any school is a real fear. Academies are subject to action if there is corruption taking place, look at Kings.

The pure lack of accountability and the secrecy with which academy chains operate makes it a mockery and our children's future life chances being destroyed in the process because of fat-cats running these chains within commercial ethos while quality education is seen as a secondary consideration.

It seems that the issues Springwood parents are grappling with are; they are asking for transparency, accountability and to make educational attainment of their children the priority.

Why is that so wrong in the 21st century?

If the school is now making improvement since the inspection why didn't it know it needed to beforehand? If the secondary school noticed short comings of new pupils why didn't the raise concerns? What is really going on at our schools?

It isn't but they have probably stood by and said or done nothing when the school was failing.

It's vital that if the parents want to keep some control over how the school is governed then they need to fight off the attempt to privatise it, which is what a take over from the Dixon Academy chain would mean. They would cease to have any effective 'say' in the running of the school and the Governing body would be replaced by a load of 'clones' who have no interest in ensuring the children get an excellent education, just that the chain makes a profit. Good luck with the campaign.

The aggression Dixons is showing in forcing Springwood fits well with their plan to acquire 11 academy's by 2015, regardless whether the schools are improving on their own.

So how can they improve a school that's already improving without them I ask you?

Well put Baildon bystander.
I totally agree with you.

Islamising schools is a fear nationally, hence all the recent inspections. It was actually a reply to a post that already mentioned it. I didn't mention it in the post that you replied to. I did mention also that I think all religions should be kept out of schools, either in running them or as a part of the syllabus.

Have u heard of selective intake ? Are u aware of this key factor the exam crap that you have to go through to get in
Let me ask you do the lesser not so bright children not deserve a fair education?

This is one if the prime reasons they have shown some improvements but only in secondary schools
As for March bank primary which was converted in January
Into dixons
They are really struggling , my point is just because you think you are doing well in secondary what guarantee can you give you will do the same in primary it's a whole different approach
And anything short of a a guarantee will not do justice to a child's education

Which you won't get in an academy !

Also in the same program

" Separately, Ofsted has launched emergency inspections of three Muslim schools in Blackburn after Dispatches filmed staff at one of them branding clapping as “Satanic.”

In undercover footage taken in the staffroom, teaching assistants at the Olive Primary School also say that music in school should be banned as “un-Islamic,” that the wearing of ties is forbidden as they could turn into serpents on the Day of Judgment, and that gay people should be “stoned to death.” "

Make sure you present a balanced view, and not just the side that most suits you!

They should christianising the school instead of islamising or they should jewising, hinduising, sikhising it instead.

You can teach good citizenship without the aid/hindrance of any of the faiths.[/p][/quote]I was being sarcastic just incae you didnt realise, thats just the typical BS people would say about muslims. Most muslims dont want religion in schools thats why they go to mosque after school and most muslims dont want sharia law. There may be a few nut jobs who do but the hell with them. Just to let you know muslims are human they have a pair of hands and a pair of legs they also come in all shapes, sizes and skin colours.[/p][/quote]Did I mention Muslims or is that your paranoia creeping out[/p][/quote]Well you mention a fear of islamising schools in one of your comments and from what i understand you were refering to muslims islamising[/p][/quote]Islamising schools is a fear nationally, hence all the recent inspections. It was actually a reply to a post that already mentioned it. I didn't mention it in the post that you replied to. I did mention also that I think all religions should be kept out of schools, either in running them or as a part of the syllabus.[/p][/quote]I'm not sure if you have seen this
Please publicise this widely @cathynewman: Exclusive: #Dispatches finds network of illegal schools. 1000 Jewish boys taught only 1 subject: religion. Undercover tonight at 8 @Channel4

What a scruffy, sorry looking lot they are in that picture. No wonder the kids are failing at the school when the parents dress like paupers from the third world!

Also where are the women protesters in that school? All the women seem to be missing from the group of protesters. I wonder why?

Take it out of their grubby looking hands now because if they can't even be bothered to dress correctly then they will not bother to try educate their offspring in the basics needed to get them ready for primary school.

A well balanced view is important and if I Have come across as anything but that ,then let me clarify by agreeing with your comment bone_idle18

We have read about king's science academy failings in the papers
But did you know dixons is taking over it
Well you might say what's wrong with that , nick weller the man in charge of dixons is married to an asian Muslim teacher from that academy ??? What!!! Well how long do you want to roll that dice ??? How much do we want to uncover ???
I agree where are the women in the photo begs the question
Hmm I wonder if they would sell as many papers if they were in the photo and if the men all came clean shaven with suites would that then be sociably acceptable to some

The moment we stop placing negative energy on to each other and start placing that focus on to the truth about academy's and the DFE
Guaranteed parents will unite for the common cause (children education)

At the this time and moment the wool is truly over our eyes
